Get index exposure efficiently
Buying meaningful exposure to a stock index outright would require significant capital. Equity index futures use leverage to solve this — a single contract gives you exposure to the entire index while requiring only a fraction of that value in capital. Keep in mind that leverage increases both potential gains and potential losses.
Trade a slice of the most liquid equity index futures
E-mini and Micro E-mini futures are a staple on Wall Street. They offer nearly 24-hour trading, no management fees, portfolio diversification, and the ability to go short as easily as you go long — no short-selling restrictions.
Choose the size that fits your capital
The E-mini contracts (ES, NQ) are among the most heavily traded futures in the world, with deep liquidity and tight spreads. The Micro E-mini contracts (MES, MNQ) track the same indices at 1/10th the size of the E-mini — accessible with less capital and allowing more precise position sizing. Together they let you match your exposure to the capital you want to commit.
